The guile and trickery of the street kid made an impact with the countrys biggest club  Nacional  before he was spotted by Dutch scouts who brought him to Europe. Surez was lured from Ajax to Merseyside by another iconic number 7  Kenny Dalglish. From that moment  he terrorized Premier League defenses  driving a resurgent Liverpool towards their most exciting top-flight season in 24 years. But there is another side to Luis Surez: the naturally fiery temperament which drives his competitiveness on the pitch. There was the very public incident with Patrice Evra of bitter rivals Manchester United  and the biting of Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic. Then during the World Cup finals in Brazil  in a physical encounter against Italy  he bit defender Giorgi Chiellini on the shoulder. Banned from soccer for four months  derided by the press  he was marched out of the country. In the summers final twist  he became one of the most expensive soccer players of all time  moving from Liverpool to Barcelona. In Crossing the Line  Luis Surez talks from the heart about his intriguing career  his personal journey from scrapping street kid to performer on soccers biggest stage  and the never-say-die attitude that sometimes causes him to overstep the mark.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45652116078645,"sku":"ByrdShop_147222423X","price":68.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781472224231.jpg?v=1781849238","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/luis-suarez-crossing-the-line-my-story-9781472224231","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
